Trioxane is produced by distilling an aqueous solution of formaldehyde in the presence of p-toluene sulphonic acid as catalyst. The optimum levels of process variables , víz. concentrations of formaldehyde and acid were determined by means of statistically designed experiments. These values were found to be 57.6 wt. per cent formaldehyde, 12.7 wt. per cent acid giving a maximum yield of 56.1 g trioxane per 100 g formaldehyde. The by-product of the reaction were examined and the mechanism of their formation is suggested
